      Landlord Standby Program

      Landlord Standby is a contractual agreement between PNM and a landlord.

      Under the agreement, when a tenant moves out of a rental property and requests that service be taken out of his or her name, PNM will:

      • Provide a final bill to the tenant.
      • Continue to provide service under the landlord's name.

      Benefits:

      • Service will remain on, even when the rental property is unoccupied.
      • No need to call when a tenant moves out.
      • No transfer fees so long as the service goes straight from the tenant's name to yours.
      • Landlord Standby is free.
